Infinite Undiscovery Moon Minutiae Musings
Baligouxji | 12:48 AM on 08.07.2008 7 comments




If you're superstitious like me, and I know you are, then you probably spend your afternoons trying your damnedest to not crack any ladders, walk under any cats, or cross paths with mirrors. (P.S. you're not pretty enough to stand in front of one any way) You must have also noticed a curious detail in Square Enix's up coming RPG, Infinite Undiscovery.

Being the JRPG enthusiast that I am, I've been keeping track of all the media surrounding Unfinite Indiscovery. And while they've superimposed an infinite amount of mystery over many of the game play elements, story, and characters, the one detail we were allowed to un-undiscover is that the Moon plays a crucial part in the events of the game. Here's where you need to perk up your ears, (and perhaps other... things) every RPG that has featured the moon as a location, a plot device for progressing through it's finite story, or even as the harbinger of death has been a RPG of extraordinary high caliber. This is FACT* and can't be disputed. Care to disagree? Resistance is as futile as dividing by zero.

Unlimited In-Disclosure is sure to join the ranks of titles such as: Lunar 1 & 2, Final Fantasy IV, and The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. Lunar 1 & 2 featured two of the best romance sub-plots the genre has ever seen, FF IV was a pioneer with its active time bar battle system, and Majora's Mask had that freaky looking moon that stared at you the entire game. (Nintendo's next hardcore game NEEDS to bring back Mr. Angry Moon)

Unfortunately due to a plethora of JRPGs being released for the 360 in the near future, many gamers may over look this moon-enslaving (Unslaving? Inslaving?) title. Regardless of whether or not I just blew your mind, Infinite Undiscovery is certainly worth another glance. Immeasurably Great Un-Realization may not be as pretty or have the same quality of voice acting that other JRPGs have and... Well... that's just finite with me.

I must say... I really enjoyed this blog.

It was short, but it was clever and well written. Hopefully anything else you write will be just as awesome.

I'm definitely keeping my eye on this game, hopefully it won't be too bad.

Also, get an avatar and welcome to Destructoid. Rule number 1, don't suck.

Chaining the moon to the earth is absolutely impossible.
Impossible... and AWESOME! Damn I love the ideas Square/Enix come up with. Tripping balls they are.

Hey! You forgot about the Sailor Moon RPG!

Also I wouldn't call Majora's Mask a JRPG.

Thanks for the positive comments, I think I'll try to write up a post per day. As for Majora's Mask... yeah well... I was really just coming up with examples, but I do think it has a significant amount of RPG like elements within it. I also could have put FFVIII down as an example... even if it is my least favorite FF title.
